BOOK TALK / HOT DOG – If you haven’t shared the 2023 Caldecott winner yet… it’s definitely the season for stories about dealing with heat! This little dog is frustrated with hot summer life in the city. The pavement, the noise, the traffic, and the trash – it’s all just TOO MUCH! Luckily, his sweet owner realizes that they could both use a beach day to get back on track!

BOOK TALK / THE SUMMER VACATION FROM THE BLACK LAGOON – Hubie has waited months for school to be out, and the day is finally here!! YAY! But… now what…? All of his friends are away at camp. Maybe he needs a project? Maybe he should get a job? Maybe he could run a lemonade stand? (Whoa… much easier said than done!) Hubie keeps hitting road blocks, but he’d better come up with an idea soon or summer is going to be a total BUMMER!

BOOK TALK / THE NIGHT BEFORE SUMMER VACATION – Don’t let the title fool you… this story isn’t about school letting out for the summer. Instead, it’s all about a family working together to pack their SUV for a summer vacation camping trip. Everybody pitches in and soon they’ve remembered EVERYTHING… oops… almost!
This story follows the familiar rhythm of `Twas the Night Before Christmas.

RESOURCE TALK / LIBRARY CART NAME TAGS Do you name your library book carts? Okay, granted that sounds kind of silly... BUT... our book trucks work hard all day hauling books to and fro -- I think they deserve a fun name!
You could do something like... Dolly CARTon or SHELVE Silverstein. Maybe Clif Hanger? BOOKer T. Washington? Fully Booked or Mario CART? :)
This resource includes 32 name tag choices... and a blank one, too -- just in case you come up with a few fun names on your own!
There`s a link in my smart.bio, if you like to see more!

Heading toward sweet summertime!
RESOURCE / I HAVE___. WHO HAS ___? A SUMMER STORY - Whoa...I had a crazy end-of-the-year dream the other night... and it inspired this game!
Students take turns matching and reading 32 cards in sequence to piece together a silly summer story. In the end, they`ll find out... yep...it was all just a dream!
Pair this resource with a favorite beach story like Harry By the Sea (Gene Zion) for a fun library time! Need one more activity to fill up your class time? Okay...I added an easy word find, too!
This is perfect for first and second graders at the end of your school year!

BOOK TALK / LIZZIE AND THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL – Because Lizzie loves kindergarten (and her teacher) SO MUCH, she is devastated to find out that the last day has arrived – and it’s only a half-day! Feeling upset, she leaves school at noon without even hugging her beloved Miss G good-bye! Later, she decides to circle back through the building to give that final hug after all. Good thing, too – she might have missed out on a few summer surprises!
